On December 12, 2019, Shane Carey, Heidi Broussard’s fiancé, noticed his fiancée and their baby Margo was missing. He alerted the authorities to the disappearance. The couple shared an apartment in Austin, where they lived with their baby who was born in November and their six-year-old son.

After an exhaustive search by authorities, Heidi Broussard was found dead inside the trunk of Magen Fieramusca’s car in Houston. The baby was found at Fieramusca’s home. According to CBS News Fieramusca’s ex-boyfriend believed it was his daughter.

Shane Carey told police that his fiancée and her friend were pregnant at the same time, and were both due at the end of the year. He added that Broussard told him that Fieramusca had given birth to a girl on December 8 or 9, however, he never saw pictures of the baby.

The report does not make it clear if the defendant was actually pregnant at any time, however, investigators found inconsistencies in her due date. In one of her conversations with authorities, she said that on December 12, when Broussard and her daughter disappeared, she had gone to the beach with a cousin. But she later said that that was the date she gave birth, although she could offer details about the delivery.

Christopher Green, Magen Fieramusca’s ex, explained that he believed that she was pregnant with his baby. He added that Fieramusca informed him that she had given birth without telling him, however that her baby was already at home on December 13.

One of the investigators showed Green a missing flyer of Heidi Broussard holding Margo Carey and he immediately recognized the baby as the child he thought was his.
